Topic: "portal vein clot"

We have a family history of cc and know from experience how difficult this can be to diagnose. So... when the docs say that they think bro has a clot in his portal vein how confident can we be that this is not a misdiagnosis of cc. He has just had a ct scan.

I would definitely have another physician take a look at the scans and reports. With this cancer historically in your family and the severety of the disease more then one opinion is in order. Good luck.
